CIRQUE ELOIZE
CIRKOPOLIS

Begins July 7 | Ziff Ballet Opera House

Directed by Dave St-Pierre and Jeannot Painchaud

“Extraordinary! There’s the circus, and then there’s Cirque Éloize. These guys are on a whole other level!” – New York Post

A heart-pumping show that dazzles the senses, Cirkopolis combines the worlds of circus, dance and theater with inventive stage design, original music and video projections, 10 acrobats and multidisciplinary artists. Jugglers brave the space, a contortionist is lifted by her companions in a surge of inspiration, aerial artists defy the height of the skyscrapers. Experiencing Cirkopolis is also stepping into the dance of the Cyr wheel, dreading the audacity of the German wheel and discovering the candor of a man who dreams only of dancing.

“Cirkopolis was imagined as a crossroads — between imagination and reality, between individuality and community, between limits and possibilities. The show is driven by the poetic impulse of life, the physical prowess of the circus and the humor, at once serious and light-hearted. Entering Cirkopolis is all about letting go and allowing yourself to be borne aloft by hope,” explained Jeannot Painchaud, creative director of Cirque Éloize and co-director of Cirkopolis.


In the heart of a stern and imposing city in appearance, giant gears and dark portals symbolize a mechanism that crushes individuality. Performing within an inventive stage design and accompanied by an original musical score and video projections, ten acrobats and multidisciplinary artists rebel against monotony, reinvent themselves and challenge the limits of the factory-city. In a world where fantasy provokes reality, the veil of anonymity and solitude is lifted and replaced by bursts of color.
